I've done this previously, but I have some additional photos of my three acoustic pianos and my digital setup, so I thought it would be fun to post these. Please, everyone else, do the same if you can. I bypassed the PF uploader site and used "Photobucket" per Apple's suggestion. Hope you enjoy:

Thanks! I'm glad you like the pictures.

Actually, the Jensen artists benches aren't that "cushy"; they provide pretty firm support without being quite as hard as wood!

i practice in an overpriced (not to mention crummy) NYC apt. and my $900 dollar electric clavinova.

"collection of grand pianos"?

by the way i must say that yamahas are awful pianos. at least their latest models. their keys feel unnaturally synthetic, their black keys are molded with sketchy edges, and the overall sound just seems to lack life in general. and i've tried many different models at the showroom. :-(

You put the rest of us to shame. I want to hear the Rachmaninov Second on that instrument!

Cheers!

Rock Peter,
I have the Mason CC2 in my living room now, where you see it in the picture, and the Steinway B and Bechstein A in another room in the house. I formerly had them both in the room where you see them together in the pictures. The Kawai is in my bedroom for late night or early morning practicing.
Curry, Bruce D and PoStTen, Gorgeous instruments all....you are very fortunate to be able to play on those. JPW101.....that was great....I laughed my A** off!! thumb ha

I've liked models in the C and S series of Yamahas. They're very decent instruments.

Once during a concert at Carnegie Hall, the violinist Rachmaninoff was playing with lost his place in the music and whispered to Rachmaninoff, "Where are we?" Rachmaninoff replied, in all seriousness, "Carnegie Hall".

These are my babies. The Technics is about four years old. It at least survived our move to Florida. The RX2 we purchased last year and so nice to have the action and response of a real piano.

Now we can do the two piano four hands music we have always wanted to do.
